Mission Statement

Built on the wrongful conviction and execution of Nathaniel Woods in 2020, The Woods Foundation is a public nonprofit organization that provides investigative services to individuals with wrongful convictions or excessive sentences in the United States. The Woods Foundation also illuminates cases of potential wrongful execution as part of the “Post Mortem Project”.

​

“The categories of oppression and liberation provide combat gear, not a pinstriped suit or dinner dress; they are good for fighting but not good for negotiating or celebrating- at least not until the oppressor have been conquered and the prisoners set free.” 

- Miroslav Volf
